AI-VActor™
SimGraphics proprietary technologies are breakthrough interactive experiences that offer a wide variety of socializing for audiences everywhere through personalized character interface. These memorable experiences can move across many platforms from entertainment and education, to exploring every avenue of LBE applications from retail, sporting events and more, meaning AI-VActor™ is virtually unlimited!
In July 2023 the company debuted its dynamic and memorable Mario experience at the Nintendo Store in New York’s Rockefeller Center – premiering during the upcoming holiday season, will be the notable Máximo exhibit at the Field Museum in Chicago. Visitors will be able to autonomously engage the Titanosaurus character in real-time that’s both entertaining and educational and future sights are directed toward creating a virtual museum docent, and to use AI characters on other online platforms.
The rise of today’s digital transformation has allowed SimGraphics advanced technologies to begin developing their AI-VActor™ Cloud prototype to bring interactive IP/brand characters to mobile phones, tablets and on the web. Recently entering a development agreement with Visaic, a sports and entertainment enterprise AI, data and video services company, the goal is to provide cloud services to consumers worldwide.
Standards
SimGraphics systems are built on industry-standard frameworks including Unreal and Unity, and integrate well within larger experiences.
Directable AI
Using special sensors and building upon AI technologies, SimGraphics focused on improving autonomous conversational interface enhancements through their Vision System so that characters, like Mario and Máximo, could detect where visitors are in the real-time environment, as well as basic objects detection a guest may be holding.
Fully Customizable Characters
The highest priority for any IP/brand or mascot property is enforcing the character’s consistency and personality, no matter the engagement, location, or type of visitor experience. SimGraphics takes great care and initiative to work with operators/licensees to ensure how animated characters come to life, and content creation, programming and storytelling has a big repertoire of possibilities, even as characters evolve! AI-VActor™ provides the same quality of recognizable visual and audio features, while guests interact with well-known or favorite characters.

What clients say about us
Jarita Bridges
, Nintendo New York
"Nintendo has had a long-standing partnership with SimGraphics to bring its iconic characters to life through this memorable interactive experience that continues to bring smiles to visitors of all ages."
Rob Zschernitz
, The Field Museum
“Máximo will now be able to autonomously interact with visitors, to answer questions about himself and the Museum. We’re building a repertoire of questions and answers that will expand as needed – he already has a personality and dialogue, programmed by SimGraphics to meet the Museum’s specifications.”
Matt Proulx
, Hasbro
“It’s a perfect fit, eliminating the traditional barriers between our characters and our youngest fans. It allows our fans to interact with Peppa in a way they never could before. Simply put, it breaks down that fourth wall that exists between viewers and the content.”
George Wade
, Bay Laurel Advisors and Licensing International Board Member
“Unique characters are a perfect fit for AI-VActor™ technology and there are so many different aspects of consumer interaction available. This is truly a different experience in our industry and has tremendous potential for operators in all LBE forms.”
